FR is devolving into the ‘take it seriously’ and ‘it’s no big deal’ camps.

We're doing both, we just don't need the end is near camps that are popping up.

Or countries as the case may be. There is a piper to be paid for mass import of cheap consumer goods(let alone essential products like medicine) from a single country. Loss of US manufacturing jobs was just a part of that tune.

Am I wrong in thinking their doomsayer in charge is not fond of our sitting President? I am beginning to think political bias is fueling many of such statements.

Low Ratings Fake News MSDNC (Comcast) & @CNN are doing everything possible to make the Caronavirus look as bad as possible, including panicking markets, if possible. Likewise their incompetent Do Nothing Democrat comrades are all talk, no action. USA in great shape!

Given what we have learned about the Deep State the past three years, would you really put this past them? I’m not one given to conspiracy theories, but this is remarkable coincidental. And, with the DS, there are no coincidences. Especially related to Donald Trump in an election year.

You echo mine, and I'm sure a lot of others thoughts.

Yes, the stupid does burn bigdaddy. Plausible deniability. Too many Deep Staters jumping on board. It is being hyped to the nth degree.

Might not be, but what IS brain-dead stupid is dismissing the possibility outright after all the “coincidences” we have seen the last 30 years. At your own peril. . . .

Did the Spanish Flu cause a worldwide depression? Ever heard of the Roaring 20s?

Congratulations to those who saw this coming and bailed out over 29,000. I sure wish I had, but I've been trained for so long to hold on through these dips because I never get back in soon enough.

Yup..thank God I was a worry wart and took all by 401k out of equities about a week ago.

This year pay raise did not come because of last years profit loss due to the China trade war. I figure if a little trade war effected my paycheck so much, what would a supply chain disruption do to the stock market

Buffett reminded us in an interview the other day we need to look 10 to 20 years out the market always recover. I don’t have 10 to 20 years; I redirected my 401K and other investments to low risk funds.

I also paid off all debts except for the house, I am ready for the rough ride. I will keep my eye open on buying opportunities like oil stocks and etc.

I’m sitting here listening to some very loud music while I work. I really don’t give a damn who’s singing, or what they’re singing about. I’m enjoying the songs, and it has nothing to do with politics.

I’m going to a nice dinner with my wife this evening. Has nothing to do with politics.

If “every is about politics” in your world, then you live a very sad life.

America is, has always been, and will always be Protected by God.. as long as we believe in Him. It really is that simple.

For some reason the “no big deal” camp thinks it is evolving into the “no big deal camp” and “we are all going to die camp”...and then calls the other side all kinds of names

the take it seriously camp never said that we are all going to die

Go ahead, believe what Goldman Sachs tells you.

Phil Murphy (D) Governor of NJ, former president of Goldman Sachs.

“Democrat Black Swan.” that is as bad as Russia Russia Russia

I don’t think the Democrats would create a virus to create global supply shortage that effects the Stock Market.

I do think the Democrats will turn this crisis into political issue, that would be rule: “Never let a crisis go to waste”.

If a person is at high risk of complications from a flu virus they should be making sure to avoid potential exposure to Covid-19. Which would mean taking extra precautions such as avoiding travel to certain places. For most healthy people following the standard mantra of, “wash your hands, use a tissue when sneezing, avoid sick people”,etc. should be enough.

And people might want consider raising the temperature on their water heater and line drying clothes in full sunlight whenever possible.

My passive contributions are stuck, but there sure won’t be anything more going in for a while.

Hopefully, by the end of the year, this thing has run its course and we can have a good 2021.
